Earlier, Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs urged citizens to consider travel to the region carefully due to ongoing uncertainty.
We are seeing an extremely unstable situation that is changing every day. Yes, flights are still operating, but, for example, Iran has already cancelled flights. This is our headache. Therefore, we ask citizens to make informed decisions and be aware of their personal responsibility,
said MFA representative Aibek Smadiyarov.
